Book excerpt: In Shoot for the Stars and You Will Land on the Moon, Leopoldo Fernández Pujals, the only Spanish entrepreneur who has led two companies into the prestigious Ibex 35 index on the Madrid Stock Exchange, shares his life experiences and shows how students, executives and those with ambition can achieve their dreams. Fernandez guides readers with wit, theory and real life examples to show how anyone with tenacity, effort and desire can become successful by overcoming the two great impediments to realizing their goals: fearitis and excusitis. Along the way, Mr. Fernandez shares many secrets to success including basic but often overlooked strategies for selling, keys to successful personnel management and detailed thought processes to ensure an executive stays on mission. Most important, Mr. Fernandez explains through stories and analysis why the most important goal for any company is to grow, with examples of how to overcome bumps in the road and recognize the difference between a legitimate need and an excuse. Shoot for the Stars is a life journey beginning with Leopoldo's hurried departure as a youth from Cuba to Miami, his education and starting a family before enlisting in the Army for the Vietnam War. Upon his return from war, Fernandez both stood out and struggled with corporate office politics as a young executive in Latin America and Spain. All this time, he dreams of opening his own business. This leads to the founding of Telepizza, the amazing stories behind its meteoric growth and struggles for control. The story concludes with lessons from the purchase of Jazztel: its rescue from insolvency amidst fierce competition from an industry giant, its growth from just 5,000 ADSL customers to one of the biggest telecommunications firms in Europe and its ultimate merger with Orange. Readers learn the keys to success as an entrepreneur and are equipped with knowledge so they too, can realize their dreams.

Book excerpt: Learn why NASA astronaut Mike Collins calls this extraordinary space race story "the best book on Apollo": this inspiring and intimate ode to ingenuity celebrates one of the most daring feats in human history. When the alarm went off forty thousand feet above the moon's surface, both astronauts looked down at the computer to see 1202 flashing on the readout. Neither of them knew what it meant, and time was running out . . . On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the moon. One of the world's greatest technological achievements -- and a triumph of the American spirit -- the Apollo 11 mission was a mammoth undertaking involving more than 410,000 men and women dedicated to winning the space race against the Soviets. Set amid the tensions and upheaval of the sixties and the Cold War, Shoot for the Moon is a gripping account of the dangers, the challenges, and the sheer determination that defined not only Apollo 11, but also the Mercury and Gemini missions that came before it. From the shock of Sputnik and the heart-stopping final minutes of John Glenn's Mercury flight to the deadly whirligig of Gemini 8, the doomed Apollo 1 mission, and that perilous landing on the Sea of Tranquility -- when the entire world held its breath while Armstrong and Aldrin battled computer alarms, low fuel, and other problems -- James Donovan tells the whole story. Both sweeping and intimate, Shoot for the Moon is "a powerfully written and irresistible celebration" of one of humankind's most extraordinary accomplishments (Booklist, starred review).

When twelve-year-old Jamie Dexter's brother joins the Army and is sent to Vietnam, Jamie is plum thrilled. She can't wait to get letters from the front lines describing the excitement of real-life combat: the sound of helicopters, the smell of gunpowder, the exhilaration of being right in the thick of it. After all, they've both dreamed of following in the footsteps of their father, the Colonel. But TJ's first letter isn't a letter at all. It's a roll of undeveloped film, the first of many. What Jamie sees when she develops TJ's photographs reveals a whole new side of the war. Slowly the shine begins to fade off of Army life - and the Colonel. How can someone she's worshipped her entire life be just as helpless to save her brother as she is? From the author of the Edgar Award-winning Dovey Coe comes a novel, both timely and timeless, about the sacrifices we make for what we believe and the people we love.

Book excerpt: 20th July 1969: Neil Armstrong becomes the first person to walk on the Moon. We all recognize this to be one of mankind's greatest achievements. Yet what did it take to make John F. Kennedy's dream a reality? In this remarkable book, Professor Richard Wiseman presents a pioneering study of the mindset that took humanity to the Moon, and shows how you can harness and use it to achieve the extraordinary in your everyday life. Combining personal interviews, mission archives and cutting-edge psychology, Wiseman embarks on the ultimate voyage through inner space. Along the way he identifies eight key principles that make up the Apollo Mindset, including how pessimism is crucial to success, and how fear and tragedy can be transformed into hope and optimism. You will discover a series of practical techniques that you can use to incorporate these winning principles into both your professional and personal life. Whether you want to start a business venture, change careers, find your perfect partner, raise a loving family, get promoted, gain a new qualification, escape the rat race, or pursue a lifelong passion, these techniques will help you to reach your own Moon.
